Hello,
‘15 Scion xB around 100k miles, burning lots of oil due to manufacturing issue, burns approx. 2+ quarts every three weeks.
Bought this liqui-moly that you add to the engine oil, heard good things about this additive. Some of these additives you need to drain the oil and refill with new one, but this specific one with the link listed below doesn’t say you have to flush it and that’s what I wanted since the oil has been recently changed. Since vehicle mostly has not been driven and will be rarely used for short driving distances ones in a while is it safe to just pour the whole bottle it into the engine oil without draining the oil later since it will burn off at some point. I know this isn’t going to fix the issue but at least a good start to prolong the engine’s life. Any suggestions and or opinions will greatly appreciate.

No, "overfilled blows seals", don't do it.is it safe to just pour the whole bottle it into the engine oil without draining the oil
Worn metal isn't going to be replaced by any liquid product.I know this isn’t going to fix the issue but at least a good start to prolong the engine’s life.
You can check the PVC valve to make sure it's operating correctly. Also could try ATS 505 CRO Oil System Treatment Scotty's recent video shows how to use it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N88lc0ZJYFcAny suggestions and or opinions will greatly appreciate.

It's snake oil. The only thing it will do is make your wallet lighter.

Don't waste your money on those kind of products. Nothing you pour into the oil is going to help a worn or damaged engine or fix defective parts.
